Original subtitles

Oppa, it was all for business. It’s nothing more than that.

It wasn’t personal, the article’s wrong. It’s false.

So they corrected it, did you see it?

Jangmi, why are you telling me this?

I don’t want there to be any misunderstandings.

About what? If it is then it is, if not, it’s not.

You don’t have to explain yourself.

Besides, you two look good together.

It’s not like that, it really isn’t.

You don’t have to explain yourself.

And I don’t have to or want to know, bye.

What are you doing?

Can’t you just let me?

Get home safe.

Jangmi… can we talk?

What did you want to talk about?

You’ve been seeing Chadol and Chorong often.

You should stop.

And I have no reason to listen you. I’ll leave.

I know that you’re Chorong’s mother.

I don’t understand, you left them and now you want to be her mom?

You’re using Chorong to be with Chadol. It doesn’t do any good.

You’re not letting Chadol to move on.

I’ll take care of Chorong so you should stop seeing them.

This is between us two. This is none of your business.

It is my business…

Because I like him.

I knew about Chorong and I’ve been getting closer to her.

If you’re worried about her, you can trust me with her.

Unless you’re trying to get back with Chadol and be her mom…

You should let him go.

I hope I was clear. Good-bye.

Mom!

Mom! The soup!

My goodness.

What’s with you these days?

What’d you make? I invited Jooyoung.

You did?

Yeah. It seems like she likes Chadol. She’s a nice girl.

I’m trying to help them get together.

Anyone home? I’m here…

Do you like it?

Yeah, it’s delicious.

- Then come everyday. - That’s too much.

- It’s not, come whenever you want. - I will.

- Chorong, isn’t she pretty? - Yeah, she is.

Thank you, but you’re prettier.

- She got you a chocolate cake. - Really? You’re the best!

We’ll have that for dessert.

You two look so cute together. Right, Gangtae?

Oh, yeah.

- Eat up. - Yeah, enjoy.

She looks like an angel. Do you put her to sleep everyday?

Yeah, except on days when she’s mad.

When she’s mad?

Yeah, if she gets in trouble then she goes to another room and sleep.

Really? How adorable.

Chadol, it’s getting late. Take her home.

- Okay, let’s go. - Okay.

It’s not late, you guys stay. She can sleep in my room.

Sis…

Right, there’s always next time.

Come over often.

Okay, thank you.

Your family’s so kind, it’s as if I’ve always known them.

Your mom and your sister are so nice.

I can come over often, right?

Of course.

I want to get closer to Chorong, taking her to places she wants to go.

It’s freezing…

Yes, Mr. Lee. I’ll see you tomorrow.

- Is he coming? - Yeah, as if he was waiting for us to ask.

Why do you invite him here? Don’t you think that’s a lot of work?

A lot of work? It’s just an extra utensil.

What? It’s that simple?

Don’t make it a big deal. You just make few more dishes that’s all.

Sure it’d be nice to do that but all that takes so much time.

You stay home all day.

I knew you’d say that.

- I’m home. - Good to see you.

Mr. Lee’s coming for lunch, so eat at home tomorrow.

Why’s he coming again?

What do you mean? We’ll see more of each other now.

Why is that? Why do you keep inviting him over here?

And now with that article. What are you trying to do?

He’s not coming for you, it’s for me.

I’m going up.

You better stay at home for lunch tomorrow!

Unless you’re trying to get back with Chadol and be her mom…

You should let him go.

Ms. Hong, it’s me. I have a favor.

Thank you.

Thank you for entrusting me with a role of a leadership in this calamity.

I promise not to disappoint you and to restore the name of our company.

I ask for your help in accomplishing this together.

That was a great introductory.

It’s all thanks to you.

At this rate, we’ll have no issue removing Mr. Lee and with the board.

But we must hurry, he’ll be released soon.

- We’ll take care of this before then. - Okay.

Mrs. Lee, as ordered, Sara Park has been terminated.

I also let all of our vendors know of our position.

I warned them to discontinue their business with Chadol Park.

Okay, thank you.

Sara, could I get the report within the day?

Here you go.

You finished all this already?

Thank you Sara!

Your contract with Gangho Group has been terminated as of today.

Ms. Yoon, do you what this is about?

Your contract with Gangho Group has been terminated as of today.

Means you’re fired.

Let me see.

It is… you’ve been fired.

Fired? Why?

Mr. Koh, take a look at this.

What is it?

HR? Without my consent?

Why? I didn’t do anything wrong.

We don’t know the details… except that Mrs. Lee asked for it.

She did?

Why’s my sister doing this?

- Did you hear? Sara Park got fired. - Yeah, I know.

- Do you know why? - Why?

She was the president’s mistress, so she fired her in retaliation.

No way! I’m not surprised though, she would.

Hey, what’s this rumor about?

Who’s spreading this lie? Tell me!

Sara!

Mr. Koh… this is unfair. It’s not my fault.

I know… I’ll handle this, don’t worry.

You don’t believe the lies, right?

What lies?

The rumor has it that I’m the president’s mistress.

What?

Sis!

We’re at work, I’m not your sister. Be professional.

And you too. What are you doing?

Sara Park followed the procedure and got hired as an employee.

You can’t terminate her on absurd assumptions.

Absurd?

Sara Park… isn’t the mistress. You don’t believe it, do you?

I’ve had my reasons, stay out of it.

She’s my employee, you can’t do this without my knowledge.

This was my decision made as your superior.

Then use that power to hire her back!

- Ms. Hong, have the car ready. - Okay.

We’re at work. Don’t be a child.

Sis!

We’re finished.

We just have to ship it.

I still can’t believe that we’re exporting to China.

What’s taking so long?

Hello?

- Cancel? - What cancellation?

Hello…

What’s wrong? Are they canceling? What lies?

I’m not sure. Gangho threatened them to discontinue this.

They think we’re lying to them.

Hello? Gangho investment dept?

There’s been a problem and we’d like the funds returned back soon.

Hello? Hello?

This can’t be happening.

What’s wrong? What are they saying?

They’re canceling the project and want their money back.

What? Why?

We don’t know. We just take orders.

Then just give me a reason.

Mr. Lee ignored the proper procedure and went ahead with his personal interest.

How? What personal interest would he have in us?

I never asked and you contacted me! You can’t take it back now.

You’ve got to explain! Let me talk to him.

Don’t you watch the news? He’s being investigated for embezzlement.

But his wife signed off on it so take it with her.

The wife?

Yes, it was her direct order.

Why would she…

- Chadol! - Sis!

What brings you here?

What’s that?

Chadol… I got fired.

What? Why?

I have no idea. Mrs. Lee fired me.

What? She did? Are you sure?

Yeah… what’s wrong?

[Would the charges of embezzlement destroy Gangho Group?]

Why are you home? What’s that box?

Mom… I got fired.

You did? Did you make a mistake?

At least that would’ve been reasonable.

Mom, this is so unfair.

There’s a rumor that I was Mr. Lee’s mistress so the wife fired me.

What?

I’ve never even see him in person.

And I think that caused problems for Chadol.

Why? What about it?

I saw him at work and he said the investment’s been called off by her too.

And she threatened his vendors too.

What?

What do we do? He made 5000 shoes, the damage is much bigger now.

Where is Chadol?

I don’t know. He went somewhere. Should I go see her?

I have to let her know that it’s not true. I should clear my name.

I’m completely humiliated by this.

Mom, where are you going?

Excuse me.

Who are you?

I came to see Mrs. Lee, thanks.

Hey, where are you going? Hey!

- Hey! Hey! Where are you going? - What’s that?

You!

I’m sorry to barge in. Is Mrs. Lee in?

- I’m so sorry, she let herself in. - What’s all that noise?

Mrs. Lee…

- Why’d you let her in. - She didn’t, she just barged in.

Did you fire my daughter and destroy my son’s business?

Mom… tell her to get out.

How dare you come in here? We don’t have time for you!

Hey, call security and the driver and get her out.

I’m so sorry. I should’ve never started this.

Eating, watching movies, and riding the bike with your husband.

For everything I’ve done, I’m so sorry.

What are you doing?

Not my kids. But nothing happened between Youngguk and I.

Youngguk? That’s my husband! How dare you!

I’m sorry. I only ate with him. If that’s makes you upset, I’m sorry.

But not my kids. It’s not their fault that they have me as their mother.

Please don’t do this. I beg you, I beg you…

Mom, what are you doing?

Chadol.

What did you just say?

He is…

Get them out.

Mrs. Lee! Mrs. Lee! Please! It’s not their fault!

LET GO! Mom, I’m fine, let’s go.

Mrs. Lee! Mrs. Lee! I beg you! Please!

Nothing happened I swear! Please! Don’t do this!

What…

Yeonhwa, that’s the same guy, right?

What have you done to her kids?

Yeonhwa, I’m just as upset. But you’ve got to tone it down.

You can’t corner them too much.

It’s better to divorce him. You’re trying to get him locked up, right?

Yeonhwa, that’s not right. No good can come from that.

Yeonhwa, are you hurt?

It’s like something’s stuck…

Is it the food? Your body must be in a lot of stress.

That’s probably why, it’s not too late to…

Mom, I want to rest.

Okay.

My head… what do we…

Mom, is Sis home? SIS!

What’s it with you? Leave her alone.

Mom, I think something’s wrong with her. That must be it.

Tell me what’s going on.

She fired someone from our team out of the blue.

Then there’s rumor that she was Youngguk’s mistress.

It’s true.

What do you mean?

She’s the mistress’ daughter.

What?

Ms. Baek and Chadol Park were together and Chorong is their kid.

- Get the car. - Okay.

Here, try the old squash. It’s our specialty.

I see.

It’s delicious.

Not everything old’s useless.

Of course, this really is great. I learn a lot from you.

From me? You’re too kind.

I was worried you’d be uncomfortable. I’m relived to hear that.

I hope you don’t mind me being here.

Now the whole world knows, you’ve go to take care of her now.

Mother…

If she’s okay, I will gladly.

Where’s the fish?

I forgot.

What’s new? She’s the most forgetful person.

Mother, he doesn’t need to know that.

It’s a condition and there’s no cure for it.

It’s not much.

Thank you again.

Just come whenever you’d like homemade food.

I will, good-bye.

I’ll walk him out. May I have a moment with you?

I’m nervous, are you going to tell me not to come?

It’s uncomfortable for me. With that article too.

I’m paranoid that someone’s watching us even now.

I made sure it’ll never happen. So don’t worry.

But if you’re okay with it, I’m okay too.

I’m not a very good person…

Jangmi, if this is about your past. I don’t care, I have one too.

What?

I know about your past and your kid.

You hired someone to find out?

Only because I was interested. We have a lot in common.

I want to spend more time with you and get to know you.

Please, take time to think about us.

Bye, Ms. Koh!

- Jangmi! - Sis!

What brings you here?

I missed you…

… and I wanted to talk.

What’s going on?

Jaeyoon Lee said he wants to date me officially.

Yeah? What do you think?

Me?

I’m not sure, it’s complicated.

Is it because of Chorong and Chadol?

I know you guys have been spending more time.

You find that funny too?

Funny? No, I think it’s natural that you’d want to.

But what about Chadol?

I don’t know. I just love that time with them.

Do you want to get back together?

Sis…

Every time I see the way dad treats Gangtae, it breaks my heart.

If Dad finds out about this, don’t you know how he’ll react?

You can’t protect him, you’ll be choosing to leave Dad.

Jangmi, if you can’t do that then you should let them go.

I should, right?

I wonder what Shinae’s up to.

I should bring this to her.

What? What did you say? With the president?

- Get up and come. - Where?

Let’s go confront them! The husband and the wife.

He’s in custody right now, he’ll have to be released first.

But you swear you’re not?

Of course not! I have someone I like!

Who’s that exactly?

Doesn’t matter. I’ll tell you later.

Then how about Chadol! Why’s he affected by this?

Mom! Is she in?

Mom? No, she’s not. Were you with her?

Why was she there begging…

What are you talking about?

Mrs. Lee was merciless to her and mom kept saying it was over.

She was begging to her about us… at the president’s house.

Why did she? Could she be… the mistress?

So she was seeing the president?

So this is all in retaliation? From the wife?

So she was seeing a married man?

It’s not like that. Your mother, she’s not like that.

So she was framed as a thief.

Yeah, she said she wanted to die.

I’ve never heard her say that.

She’s always kept her head high.

She really had no idea he was married.

It’s not her fault. Not one bit.

Mom… where were you? We were so worried.

Are you nuts? Why’d you go beg?

It broke my heart when I heard it.

That’s what I deserve… I ruined my kid’s life by dating.

- No, you did NOT! - Geumja, let me ask you something.

Spending time with my friend Youngguk…eating together.

And cheering him up when he’s down…

I’ll admit that I had feelings but I didn’t know. Is that really so bad?

They framed me and now my kids. I’m so sad, I’m embarrassed.

What do I do…What have I done to my kids?

It’s fine… it’s okay. What’s going on…

Chadol… Chadol… where are you going?

Who is it?

It’s the guy that came with the lady.

Turn it off.

Hey! You want to die?

What are you doing?

I thought you were a good person. Just because you have power and money.

You can’t live like that, abusing it.

Looking down at people who have less. You repel me.

If you hurt my mom again, it won’t end here.

Sir, I promise to pay back. You’ve got to trust me.

Last time, I had nothing. But now, I have my shoes.

I’ll sell them and I’ll pay you back.

Mr. Park, get up… Get up.

I know the situation’s out of your hand. What can you do?

That happened to me too so I know how you must feel.

- Work hard and pay me back. - Thank you.

Bastards. Don’t ever do business with them.

Thank you, I’m so sorry.

I really am sorry to you guys.

Hey, don’t sweat it.

It’s fine. We can pay it back with the shoes.

Even with China, they’re the ones breaching the contract.

We never fulfilled their condition of being supported by Gangho.

We will have to pay them back.

Then shouldn’t we sue Gangho?

We don’t have a chance against them. It’ll be a waste.

It’s all so unfair.

I’ll handle Gangho group, we’ve got to sell these first.

We have people to pay off.

Will you guys be okay?

We’re all one.

Yeah, we’re still young. All this will count for something later.

- Should we go then? - Yeah, let’s go!

Come on!

- Shoes! - Sneakers!

- Take a look! - It’s on sale!

- Come take a look! - Everything’s on sale!

- Can I try? - Of course.

- Try it on! - They’re new!

- Do you have a pink one? - No, but these are new.

Hello, we’re a shoe wholesaler. We’re selling at original cost.

Call me if you’re interested. Thank you.

Hello, I’m a shoe wholesaler. It’s offered at original cost. Please call me.

- Okay, I will. - Thank you.

- Ms. Hong, can you come in? - Okay.

I’m not feeling well, I better go home.

- Could you bring the docs home for me? - Okay.

- Mom, Sis is home, right? - Be quiet.

Where is she? In her room?

Jaedong! She’s not well, let her rest up. What is it?

Jaedong! Jaedong!

- Let me talk to you. - What’s with you!

We will but I’m tired right now.

Is it true what they say? You framed Youngguk with Director Kim?

You leaked all that information to have him arrested.

Jaedong… is that true?

This isn’t about you.

I understand that you’re upset but you can’t do that.

Not with someone like Kim, you’re putting all of us at risk.

Stay out of it, I have my reasons.

Don’t dismiss me. I know all there is to know.

I spent a chunk of my life working with Youngguk at Gangho.

Director Kim’s an opportunist, you can’t trust him at all.

What’s all this about?

Sis. You can’t bring your personal issues to work.

You’re putting the company at risk, what if it gets sold?

You’d be happy then?

Get sold? What do you mean? Is this true? That can’t be!

Mom. That’s never going to happen, leave me alone.

Jaedong! Jaedong! Hey, Jaedong!

Thank you for calling me.

I wanted to be honest with you.

As you said, I thought about what you proposed.

But I’m still confused and am indecisive.

I still miss them and it’s not fair to be dating you like this.

I know I would end up hurting them more and I want to stop.

I know that I should… that it’s not right…

But it’s not easy.

Then let me help.

Mr. Lee…

We’ll try together.

Thank you.

I see a lot of young couples with matching accessories. It’s nice.

I really wanted to do that, do you want to?

Shoes! Come check it out!

How about matching shoes?

Sounds good.

Shoes! Clearance sale!

Welcome!

- Hi. - Hello.

Jangmi, pick one.

Yeah, pick one. This one’s popular for a couple look.

Oh, I like that. What do you think?

We’ll take it.

It’s $70.

We only take cash.

We don’t have change.

I’ll pay for it.

It’s $70.

Thank you.

- Clearance sale! Shoes! - Come look! Sneakers!

- It’s me. - What’s going on?

I saw Chadol on the streets, what happened?

His investment deal didn’t fall through.

That’s terrible.

Don’t worry, he’s got help from home.

Okay, thank you.

It’s me. I want to buy the staffs shoes. Can you find out sizes for me?

Oppa, it was all for business. It’s nothing more than that.

It wasn’t personal, the article’s wrong. It’s false.

Has all the charges been cleared?

Would you summoned again for questioning?

If there is a need, I will cooperate. But those charges are falsely.

Then where’s all that money? You’ll be held responsible for it.

I will take full responsibility.

I’ll account for every single penny of the money.

- Mr. President! - Mr. President!

Mr. Koh, Mr. Koh!

It’s an emergency! Mr. Lee’s released for lack of evidence.

He did?

Yeah, you’ll have to help me, otherwise, your sister’s next.

What? My sister?

Is she behind that money? How’s that possible?

He gave it to her as a support fund for the gallery.

There’s no time, you have to hide the finance director.

Here. This is his address.

There’s no time!

Okay, okay.

Director Kang, it’s me, Jaedong.

Where is Mr. Lee now?

Mr. Lee is calling for emergency board meeting.

He is?

Thank you for holding your ground during my absence. Thank you.

You’re speaking too soon.

They may have released you but what about the money?

Unless you can account for the money, you’re still guilty.

It’s true, unless that money’s found, you’re not welcomed.

So that’s why you hid it so well? Hiding the finance director too?

- Excuse me? - What are you accusing us of?

I’m calling this meeting off. How dare he?

Take a seat, Director Choi. We’re just getting started.

Mr. Lee, we came here to discuss your removal.

- Get up, everyone. - Let’s leave!

- Take a seat! - Get up!

The finance director…

It’s the gallery support funds.

Thank you, Mr. Koh.

I’m so sorry please forgive me.

The missing funds… were support funds to the gallery.

Youngguk, how are you? We’re glad to see you.

- Go bring me tofu. - Okay.

We’re so glad to see you.

Yeonhwa. You guys came together?

- Get out of the house right now. - Youngguk…

I said leave. Don’t you hear me?

Yeonhwa, Yeonhwa, what’s wrong? Yeonhwa…

Enough with the acting, you can’t fool me again.

How could you? Act? She’s not!

She did this to me. I want you out by the time I come back.

Youngguk! Youngguk!

Yeonhwa… Yeonhwa… what’s wrong?

Doctor… how bad is it?

What is it? Just tell me.

It’s bad… It’s cancer.

Cancer?

It’s pancreatic cancer.

Pancreatic cancer?

How do you know Jangmi?

She’s buying and advertising for us.

Doc, I don’t want anyone to know about my cancer.

- Let’s just be co- workers. - No, I can’t.

I can’t give you up.

Who are you? You can’t do this!

What are you doing? What are you doing to us!

Jangmi said to give this to you.

What do you think you’re doing? Are you pitying me?

It’s not like that.

Then what is it?

I missed you.
